Which just goes one more step toward proving my hypothesis, based on anecdotal evidence and observation of a limited sample set, that all psychologists are batshiat crazy. I'm sure if I stay on Fark enough, I'll get to a reasonable certainty, statistically speaking.

sure, people will do all sorts of shiat for the lulz. once again: reporting stupid science stuff publicly just helps believers of invisible sky wizards stay firmly rooted in their ancient magic texts. yes, that's just my opinion, but i feel strongly about it. how do you expect other people to evolve if you keep feeding them the scientific equivalent of a cartoon strip? a/k/a you're not helping. farking chicken heads for gosh sakes. the whole playing with dead animals / dead parts is just disrespectful, offensive and wrong. if you saw a child doing such a thing you explain to the child lovingly why their behavior is improper. adults are supposed to know better.

Speaking as a psychologist, I entirely concur with your hypothesis. We're right up there with theater-people for being nuttier than squirrel poo.

Here I am, wasting my time with robots for theory-of-mind and social signal processing research. I could be convincing other grad students to give dolphins hand-jibbers or to decapitate mice while taking their picture. For science.

And how about the dudes who pioneered the "spinal tap" (and no, it wasn't Tufnel, Smalls, and St. Hubbins)? They decided to skip all that "scientific method" nonsense and just poke holes in each others' spinal columns. Because it's not a party until somebody spends a week in severe neural shock vomiting his guts out due to severe lack of cerebrospinal fluid. The same dudes also invented the aptly-named (because of its mad-scientist origins) "blood patch" which was their answer to the problem of "my dumbass colleague just poked a large hole in my dura mater and I'm leaking cerebrospinal fluid faster than my body can replace it." Basically, they just take some blood out of a convenient vein and INJECT IT INTO YOUR SPINAL COLUMN. You know, because "hey, wouldn't it be cool if we all had blood in our spinal columns? I bet that would be awesome!"

I have heard that precipitation-hardened aluminum was discovered because a research assistant had a date. See, it was Friday night and the assistant wanted to leave. But the guy in charge of the science was all "test more mechanical properties". He was talked down to just a few hardness tests. Monday morning they went to finish up the work and found the hardness was very different. Lots of science later, it turns out that if you put the right impurities/alloys in aluminum, they will gradually agglomerate which, as we all remember from our materials science courses, can improve the mechanical properties, such as hardness.

I'm so not answering that :P

Plain, not so awful. Closer to drinking an IV bag, mainly a texture problem. The 'premium' stuff (with FCS) holy bouncing ass rape, that was nasty. Part of the problem was knowing "hey I'm drinking liquified fetus.

And the ph indicator turned most of our pee a funny color.

I worked on HIV, SIV, Equine Herpes, and a little B virus, thankfully not in anything bigger than a gene cloned into a plasmid.
